The Digital Earth Sciences program focuses on integrating remote sensing and geoinformatics in the context of environmental monitoring and management. Students will engage with cutting-edge technologies and methods to address global challenges. The curriculum includes practical applications and projects aimed at developing expertise relevant for various careers in academia and industry.
The program focuses on the theoretical and practical aspects of teaching in secondary education, covering key subjects such as pedagogy, didactics, and educational law. Students explore diverse teaching methods and learn to effectively manage classroom dynamics while addressing various learning needs.
The degree program is structured over six semesters, each comprising a mix of theoretical courses and practical training. Students engage in internships to gain hands-on experience, culminating in a thesis that showcases their research capabilities in education.
Graduates will acquire competencies in teaching, assessment, and classroom management, along with skills in critical thinking and educational research. They will be equipped to address challenges faced in contemporary education settings.

Non-EU / third-country rate. Always confirm on the official site.
Third-country (non-EU/EEA) applicants generally need to have their prior qualifications legalised and translated for the admission application. Exact rules depend on the country that issued each document — always confirm with the university's admissions office.
Program-specific items — a CV, letter of motivation, an entrance exam (e.g. GMAT, GRE, SAT) or a portfolio — vary by degree. Check this program's requirements above and its official page.
The level of legalisation your certificates need depends on your country of origin:
Apostille
If your country is part of the Hague Apostille Convention, an Apostille from the competent authority of the issuing country is sufficient.
No legalisation
A small number of countries have a bilateral agreement with Austria and need no further legalisation.
Full diplomatic legalisation
For all other countries: the full chain — pre-certification by the issuing country's authorities (e.g. Ministry of Education and Ministry of Foreign Affairs), then legalisation by the competent Austrian representation (embassy/consulate).
Translations are usually done after legalisation. Check the required order with the issuing authorities and the Austrian representation.
After admission: proof of sufficient funds, health insurance and the student residence permit are part of the visa process — not university admission. We cover those in the guides.
The University of Salzburg (PLUS) covers humanities, law, natural and life sciences, and digital cultures in one of Austria's most attractive student cities.
